Stay on course
Joshua 1:7
………be careful to do all that my servant Moses told you, do not turn from it to the right or to the left…..
In the verse above, God is advising Joshua to keep to or follow all the directions his predecessor Moses gave him.
He should be bold and courageous, he should not be discouraged with the stubbornness of the Israelites. No matter what happens, he should not alter any of the instructions Moses gave him
This advice applies to all Christians. We should not be tempted to alter the teachings in the bible to suit us. It is important to keep to the principles in the bible on love, morals, sin, faith, preaching the gospel, faith etc
Psalm 119:106 says
Thy word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path
The bible should be our manual and guide
Hebrews 12:2
Looking unto Jesus, the author and perfector of our faith. Who for the joy that was set before Him, endured the cross despising the shame…..
The crime, sin and violence in the world should not discourage or distract us. Keep your eyes on Jesus and learn from the example he set for us
God be with you
How can I apply the word to my life?
1.Pray for God to help you shut out all the distractions from the world and stay true to Him
Prayer
Let this song be your prayer
Keep me true
Lord Jesus
Keep me true
There is a race that I must run
There are victories
To be won
Give me power
Every hour to be true.
Amen
